When my support rusted out I tried a temporary fix by sandwiching the brace and rusted support (or what was left of it) between two pieces of plate metal.





As you can see, that didn't work for too long as the entire radiator support started splitting apart.



So I ended up taking it all apart and replacing just the bottom section with a cheap eBay part.

It didn't take more than a few months before the bolts completely ripped out of the new member and I was left back at square one. I had had it with this part and all the work I put into it. I ended up welding an angle to support the brace and some intermediate verticals to keep it centered. So far, this has been working the best. LOL.
